When I was younger I was blessed with two parents who worked very hard and were able to save money for our college education, that meant that all three of us got to graduate without any debt.

But time has changed and that means that living cost is higher than ever, making it harder to save for your child/children college education, that is if you are not informed and don't know where to look. This past weekend I got to attend a Momtrends event with the lovely people from NY529 college savings program. Valentina got to go with me and as us parents listened and got a refresher on how easy it is to save for our kids higher education, she got to bloom artistically and make some fun arts and crafts with The Craft Studio team.

How is it possible that we are almost on our second week of October and that I'm just now sharing a recap of our #JustAPlaygroundParty playdate.

But we've been so busy these past few days and this mommy is still trying to get used to having her baby girl in pre-k and balance working from home while making sure to spend time with her kids when they get back from school, especially when our afternoons are also full of activities.

A few days ago we got to host our third playdate and we had the perfect weather for unplugging and moving around.

Each time we plan out a playdate we make sure it's something that's fun for the kids and will have a special message. This time it was being able to unplug and get moving outdoors.

With the way our kids (I talk from experience) are connected to tablets or phones, it was great to see them free play for more than 3 hours.
